The meeting is for anyone in the Real Estate World.

Think social media is just a waste of time? Does Facebook have you frustrated? Is your Instagram game weak? Posts not getting any love? Spending $$$ on ads? Not getting any leads?

If you answer yes to any of those questions, the bad news is you’re probably going about it all wrong. But that is not your fault–most people just don’t know what the Social Media rules are, or how to leverage those rules for more business.

The good news is there is a recipe for success, its called “THE SECRET SAUCE” The better news is that it’s free. There is no paid advertising. No coaching programs. No shiny objects. No complicated technology to learn. Nothing to buy.

Join us as we host Patrick Queally, a social media expert and Mortgage Consultant with Hancock Financial, as he shows you the SECRET SAUCE only known to a few individuals.

You will hear:

-Effectively lower your cost per lead utilizing social media channels -the RIGHT way;
-How to boost your brand presence and get more interaction with a few simple tips;
-Take Advantage of the SECRET SAUCE formulas, to drive engagement and more followers.

This will be a good event to start 2019 the right way -you won't want to miss it!Who: All are welcome

You thought you’ve seen all the gurus.

But you haven’t seen them all yet. We at Black Diamond don’t allow gurus, unless they are professional comedians that mock the system.

He’s Back – from the incredible big bash – initial holiday party in December of 2012, where he did a segment on who REALLY started the real estate crash (hint – it was adult entertainment!), billionaire Brian Longwell is back to share his secrets of how you can also make a gazillion dollars with his secrets of success, such as:

Lower the amount of “Suck” in your life
How Not to Team Build
How to make a Gazillion dollars in 6 minutes
Much Much More

You won’t want to miss this. We had to pay a pretty penny to get Mr Longwell to change his plans from doing whatever gazilionaire success stories do, to come and speak to us on this night.
You absolutely won’t want to miss it!
PS – Mr Longwell is offering a FREE GIFT for the first 25 people who arrive! (But don’t count on it being a laptop!)

DISCLAIMER: He’s a well known comedian in the state – and he had a HUGE demand from when we first got him to do an act in 2012!

Hi guys & gals!

One of the hot topics recently in the real estate investing world, is "BRRR" Deals - Buy - Rehab - Rent - Refinance. It's a way to get into multifamily, and hopefully, get a bunch of your original cash back on the deal but still hold the asset.

This was an interesting one from the beginning - there was a story on how LONG it took us to purchase, a rogue fire, how we offered value-adds to the seller to get him to remain with us throughout the deal, and of course, the construction issues themselves, since nothing ever goes smoothly. Sprinklers, rebuilding the third floor, etc.

For those that haven't seen it yet - we have some EXCELLENT "pre-pictures" here:

Hi guys & gals!

Another project under the belt. Please come join us as we take a walk through 120 Sparks Street to see how everything turned out.

Some of you were at the DEMO AND DESTRUCTION day - where we consumed alcohol and tore down a few walls.

If you haven't had the opportunity to join us at the is project yet,- we have some EXCELLENT "pre-pictures" here:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=10Hdjv_9ih3nW0C4v4_P0neYRtA6FsqW5

As a reminder on the background of this house, the seller was medically forced out into a longer term care option (now is one of our tenants!), and after 60 years of hoarding, it was fairly bad. Although VERY far from the worst we've seen. This was going to be a quick flip - but now, a very special rehab, as Nick's own Mom will be moving in (after demanding a garage, and a brand new 3 season porch, and a fireplace, and... we're a bit over budget!!). Come check it out, ask questions, provide feedback, and meet other local rehabbers, developers, wholesalers & agents!
